Masking input value after showing a few characters - javascript

I have an form input[type=text] that I would only like to show the first few characters, followed by the corresponding number of asterisks. For instance, if the value was banana, the input would display ban*** but would still submit banana.
A password field isn't the solution because I want to show some number of characters from the actual value.
I was thinking of saving the value in a data attribute and adding/remove on keydown, updating to asterisks on blur, and changing the value on submit but worry this could get messy. I'm using jQuery so I'm open to any plugins that may be out there as well.

Here I've keep a track of original text, and inside the edit I change chars after 3 into password char.
The proper password is then stored inside a data attribute data-orig, that you can then read when you submit data.
const i = $("input");
i.on("input", function () {
const $t = $(this);
const orig = $t.attr("data-orig") || "";
const v = $t.val().split("");
for (l = 1; l < orig.length && l < v.length; l += 1) {
v[l] = orig[l];
}
$t.attr("data-orig", v.join(""));
for (l = 3; l < v.length; l += 1) {
v[l] = "●";
}
$t.val(v.join(""));
});
$("button").on("click", function () {
console.log(i.attr("data-orig"));
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="text">
<button>Get pwd</button>

I would use a hidden input field to store the real value and add a onchange-listener to it. So when it gets an Update the visible filed will get the update to. This function have to be triggerd onLoad to
HTML
<input type="hidden" name="realField" value="banana" onChange="update()">
<input type="text" readonly="readonly">
JS
function update(){
var text = $('input[name=realField]').val();
var s = '';
for(var i=3; i<text.length; ++i){
s+='*';
}
text = text.substr(0, Math.min(text.length, 3)) + s;
$('input[name=realField] + input').val(text);
}

How do I use a form input number as a Javascript variable?

<form>
<input type="text" name="" value="">
</form>
//for loop used to calculate balance after payment(x) and interest
// the variable I want defined from the form input box
for(i = 6000; i>=10; i = i * (1+0.2/26)-x){
var x = 155;
document.write("Balance " + " $" + i + "<br/><br/>");
}
You could attach a pseudo class in your input element and then get the value inserted like below:
<input type="text" name="" value="" class="js-interest">
<script>
var ele = document.getElementsByClassName("js-interest")[0];
var value = parseFloat(ele.value);
</script>
You can try document.getElementById('input_id').value and then use parseInt to get it as an integer, as below:
var x = parseFloat(document.getElementsByName('number_box').value);
Also, the html must look something like this:
<form>
<input type="text" name="number_box" value="">
</form>
Optionally, instead of document.getElementsByName() you can use document.getElementById() or document.getElementsByClassName().
Update:
If I am not wrong
for(i = 6000; i>=10; i = i * (1+0.2/26)-x){
var x = 155;
document.write("Balance " + " $" + i + "<br/><br/>");
}
It seems like you are writing to the DOM inside a for loop don't do that calculate your ANS and then write to the DOM.
Also, don't read the data from input inside the loop. (You will be repeatedly reading and writing the data thats not good.)
Your for loop for(i = 6000; i>=10; i = i * (1+0.2/26)-x) is incrementing using some expression i = i * (1+0.2/26)-x (make sure it is bound to the condition and its not making the loop infinite)
You can select the value from the input field using the following code
x = parseInt(document.querySelector('form input[name="my_number"]').value);
document.querySelector it uses CSS style selector. So, to select the input field inside your form. I have added a name to the form as name="my_number"
<input type="text" name="my_number" value="">
now using the css selector form input[name="my_number"] it select the input field inside a form with name "my_number"
The whole Query selector that will return the input element is this,
document.querySelector('form input[name="my_number"]')
now to get the value of the input field you have to read the value property of the input field.
document.querySelector('form input[name="my_number"]').value
This will return your input value as string.
Now, we need to parse that string value to a Integer format.
We do that like this, (using parseInt)
parseInt(document.querySelector('form input[name="my_number"]').value)
I have added you code in a function named calc
function calc() {
var x = parseInt(document.querySelector('form input[name="my_number"]').value);
var ans= calculate_your_value(x);
document.write("Balance " + " $" + ans + "<br/><br/>");
}
I have fetched the answer from a function named get calculated answer and its good to do this way.
function calculate_your_value(x){
// calculate the ans the for loop seems buggy
//for (i = 6000; i >= 10; i = i * (1 + 0.2 / 26) - x) {}
return x; //dummy ans
}
It is called when you submit the form.
To do that I have added onsubmit='calc()' on your form tag.
<form onsubmit='calc()'>
Additionally, I have added this function that submits the form when you have pressed enter too (Just for fun) :)
document.onkeydown=function(){
if(window.event.keyCode=='13'){
calc();
}
}
It just listens for key down press and check if it is a enter key (keycode is 13)
and calls the same calc function.
function calc() {
var x = parseInt(document.querySelector('form input[name="my_number"]').value);
var ans= calculate_your_value(x);
document.write("Balance " + " $" + ans + "<br/><br/>");
}
document.onkeydown = function() {
if (window.event.keyCode == '13') {
calc();
}
}
function calculate_your_value(x){
// calculate the ans the for loop seems buggy
//for (i = 6000; i >= 10; i = i * (1 + 0.2 / 26) - x) {}
return x; //dummy ans
}
<form onsubmit='calc()'>
<input type="text" name="my_number" value="">
<input type="submit" id="submitbtn" />
</form>

Display number of Input fields based on the value in database column

I have a database table with column name qty that holds an int.Now i want to display as many input fields as the value in qty.
So far i haved tried this using iavascript code . Here is my javascript code .
$(function() {
var input = $(<input 'type'="text" />);
var newFields = $('');
$('#qty').bind('blur keyup change', function() {
var n = this.value || 0;
if (n+1) {
if (n > newFields.length) {
addFields(n);
} else {
removeFields(n);
}
}
});
function addFields(n) {
for (i = newFields.length; i < n; i++) {
var newInput = input.clone();
newFields = newFields.add(newInput);
newInput.appendTo('#newFields');
}
}
function removeFields(n) {
var removeField = newFields.slice(n).remove();
newFields = newFields.not(removeField);
}
});
Just store the value in the textfield(hidden)
HTML:
<input type="hidden" id="quantitycount" value="4" />
<div class="textboxarea"></div>
Jquery:
Get the textbox value
var quantitycount=jQuery('#quantitycount').val();
var txthtml='';
for(var txtcount=0;txtcount<quantitycount;txtcount++){
txthtml+='<input type="text" id="txtbox[]" value="" />';
}
jQuery('.textboxarea').html(txthtml);
You can use entry control loops to loop for number of times
Now we can see number of textbox as per need, Just the value from db and store that in the textbox
You can try this
foreach($qty as $qt){
echo '<input type="text">';
}
To append the text fields you need a wrapper on your html form
use some wrapper as mentioned by #Rajesh: and append your text-fields to that wrapper as shown below
$('#qty').bind('blur keyup change', function() {
var n = this.value || 0;
if (n >0) {
for(var x=0;x<n;x++){
$('#textboxarea').append('<input type="text" name="mytext[]"/>');
}
});
similarly you can write your own logic to remove the text-fields also using jquery

How I can validate multiple textareas with javascript

Requirement :
All textareas should be validated for null values and if any one contains null values textarea should get highlighted.
Issue :
I am able to validate single textarea however its not validating pending once.
Can we validate multiple textareas at the same time?
Java Script Code :
My updated JS code as below :
var score_elem_nm_arr_len=score_elem_nm_arr.length;
for(k=0; k
{
var score_elem_com_desc = new Array(k);
//var lengt=score_elem_com_desc.length;
var score_elem_com_desc1="score_elem_com_desc"+k.toString();
var score_elem_com_desc = trim(document.getElementById(score_elem_com_desc1.toString()).value);
if (score_elem_com_desc.length < 1)
{
window.alert("Test additional comment(mon_edit)");
document.forms[0].score_elem_com_desc.focus();
document.getElementById('div_prg_upd').innerHTML='';
return;
}
}
JSP code:
<html:textarea id="score_elem_com_desc" name="score_elem_com_descp"
property="score_elem_com_desc"
styleId="score_elem_com_desc" value="<%= val %>"
styleClass=" detail texta" onkeyup="return setMaxLength(this, 2000)">
</html:textarea>
Submit Button :
<input type="button" name="but_upd" value="Submit" class="pushbut1"
onClick="document.getElementById('div_prg_upd').innerHTML='Submitting data...please wait...';document.forms[0].but.value='U';mon_edit2_validatefields();">
Technologies used are : HTML, Struts 1, Java Script.
You can do something like this:
//get all textarea
k =document.getElementsByTagName("textarea")
//do validation on each textarea
for (var i = 0; i < k.length; i++) {
//do validation on k[i].value
}
use score_elem_com_desc as class in text area.
var allTextArea = document.getElementsByClassName('score_elem_com_desc');
for(var k = 0; k < allTextArea.length; k++){
if(!allTextArea[k].value) {
allTextArea[k].focus();
return false;
}
}

entry in input one by one should show added result in result field

when user select any option in radio buttons in group one and then enter any number in respective input field and then select the next any radio option and enter any value in input field then this time it should add the new result with old one and display it in result input field and now if he empty any input field then that should also minus from the total result and display it in result field.
i have so many groups like that but here i just put two of them to get the result.
here id the FIDDLE
here is the jquery code. i can work in jquery but not very good i used separate code for every group and i know there must be a way to get this whole functionality through generic code but again i am not good at jquery
jQuery("#txt_im").keyup(setValue);
jQuery('[name="rdbtn-im"]').change(setValue);
function setValue() {
var txt_value = jQuery("#txt_im").val();
var rad_val = jQuery('[name="rdbtn-im"]:checked').val();
if(!txt_value.length) {
jQuery('#final_res').val('');
return;
}
if (!rad_val.length) return;
var res = txt_value * rad_val;
var final = parseInt(res, 10);
var MBresult = final / 1024;
jQuery('#final_res').val(MBresult.toFixed(2));
}
var final2 = 0;
jQuery("#txt_fb").keyup(setValue2);
jQuery('[name="rdbtn-fb"]').change(setValue2);
function setValue2() {
var txt_value = jQuery("#txt_fb").val();
var rad_val = jQuery('[name="rdbtn-fb"]:checked').val();
if(!txt_value.length) {
jQuery('#final_res').val('');
return;
}
if (!rad_val.length) return;
var res2 = txt_value * rad_val;
final2 = parseInt(res2, 10) + final;
var MBresult = final2 / 1024;
jQuery('#final_res').val(MBresult.toFixed(2));
}
infact user is free to select any number of groups or also free to remove any number of group after selection.
i know there is error in fiddle when user select 2nd group after the select of first it removes the result which is wron and i tried to solve it but failed but i define the whole seen what i need to do. i will be very thankfull to you for this kind favour.
HTML:
<table>

FIDDLE
If you are using chrome, then console is your best friend ( https://developers.google.com/chrome-developer-tools/docs/console )
For firefox you have firebug, opera has dragonfly (or something like that ?). Even IE has console now. There you can see all errors popping up.
Ok, so first of all let's clean up this a little bit by wrapping it all in closure (we can now safely use the $ instead of jQuery even if there is namespace conflict outside). Also, we will use single function for both cases, because they are so similar.
!function ($) {
$(".txt-email").keyup(setValue);
$('.rdbtn-style-social').change(function(e) { setValue(e, true) });
function setValue(e, radio) {
if('undefined' === typeof radio) radio = false;
var attr = radio ? 'name' : 'id';
var tmp = e.target[attr].split('-');
var media = tmp[tmp.length - 1];
var txt_value = $("#txt-"+media).val();
var rad_val = $('.rdbtn-style-social[name="rdbtn-'+media+'"]:checked').val();
if (!txt_value.length || !rad_val.length) {
$('#final_res').val('');
return false;
}
var res = (txt_value | 0) * rad_val;
var final = parseInt(res, 10);
var MBresult = final / 1024;
$('#final_res').val(MBresult.toFixed(2));
}
}(jQuery);
(variable | 0 is same as parseInt(variable, 10)).
So, long story short: when radio or text gets changed, the function is fired (if it's radio, additional argument is passed). We retrieve whether we want to work on im or fb, then do whatever you want. I changed id of inputs to replace _ with -'s (for split consistency)

dynamic arrays with input javascript

I am currently doing a school project where I have to use javascript to create a page where a user can key in multiple numbers from an input box.
After each number is entered there is a add button which then shows the number in another box below the input. So each number is displayed vertically down the page.
From there I need two more buttons. The first one to calculate which will add the numbers together and work out the average. The second one will clear the array to start again.
I believe I am ok with the last two buttons. What I am unsure of is how should the user input create the dynamic array which will then be displayed in the page. I have been able to get a single number input but I am missing the next step so the next number entered will dispay and allow me to build an array from which the calculations can be performed.
Please try this I think it will work for you
JAVA SCRIPT :
<script type="text/javascript">
var arr = new Array();
function addNum()
{
var temp = document.getElementById('a').value;
arr.push(temp);
document.getElementById('a').value = "";
getAvg();
}
function getAvg()
{
var sum = 0;
for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){
sum += parseInt(arr[i]);
}
var avg = sum/arr.length;
document.getElementById('sum').value = sum;
document.getElementById('avg').value = avg;
}
function clearAll()
{
arr.length = 0;
document.getElementById('a').value = "";
document.getElementById('sum').value = "";
document.getElementById('avg').value = "";
}
</script>
HTML:
<table>
<tr><td><input type="text" id="a"></td>
<td>Sum :<input type="text" id="sum"></td>
<td>Avg :<input type="text" id="avg"></td></tr>
<tr><td><input type="button" value="add" onclick="addNum()"></td>
<td><input type="reset" value="reset" onclick="clearAll()"></td></tr>
</table
Easiest way would be to loop over the inputs showing the numbers and add each number that way, rather than trying to maintain an array that is updated from the first input.
Stick the displaying input elements into a container with an id, then you can do something simple like:
var container = document.getElementById("container-id"),
inputs = container.children,
total;
for (var x = 0, y = inputs.length; x < y; x++) {
total += parseInt(inputs[x].value, 10);
}
alert(total) //do something way better than alert!
